@robchapman Not jusk UK policeā¦
Cops everywhere are complete, utter, reactionary and violent moronsā¦
@devnull
i have to say that i actually think that policing from when I was younger to now has massively changed.
I know that UK Police are not getting the same level of training, I'll bet this is a similar story across the world.
The quality, training, and the actual suitability for holding the job is simply not there.
@robchapman I'm not convinced.
Where I was born, cops beat up and rob people since I was a kid. According to >60 years old people, that's nothing new.
And fucking anti-terrorist units don't give a fuck about killing hostages during raidsā¦
And where I live now, cops have been racist fucks for decades, long before I was born they threw immigrants in river mocking them with racist slurs as they were drowningā¦
Noways they target and dox brown journalists, threaten them to death [ā¦]
@devnull
Fair enough, but that is my experience from growing up in the UK - where as you have yours.
Yes, there were Police back then who were thugs, but not all of them, where as now 99.9% are thugs and the other 0.1% won't be in the job long enough, because they job they applied for, doesn't exist anymore.
@robchapman I've spent most of my life in france where cops have a long history of killing immigrants during protests, and leftist unions

And keep doing of nowadays, just to lesser scaleā¦ While whining, with the far-right politicians and fascist billionaires owned media support, that "cops can't do their work" whenever someone asks for an investigation when cops kill.
Cops racism is systematic & they're always protected by their bosses. Victims families are
@robchapman denied justice whenever it's about cops violence/murder commited by copsĀ¹.
They're refused access to video footage and such. Sometimes evidence even "lost" from evidence storage (which obviously never happens en cases where the offender is not a copā¦) and victims family lawyers learns that only a few years after (the prosecutor retains that information from themā¦)
The only difference in France nowadays, is that cops also assault, injure and kill middle class white people during protests against the gov pro-rich policy, which is also detrimental to middle class. Suddenly making cops violence newsĀ² worthy.
1. Which happends more and often since the last 10 years or soā¦
2. Still not by the big media owned by authoritarian bourgeoisie that litterally suggested "sending commandosā against protesters, only some independent media outletsā¦
When antifascists peacefully broadcast a movie about dictatorship are raided and wounded by far right militia with knives screaming "Paris is nazi, Lyon as well", the racist far-right zombie, home affairs sinisterĀ³ ignores the attack for days then talks aboutā¦ "stopping far-left violence"
3. Named by the pseudo-centrist party and is known for screaming "terrorism" all over the medias whenever a brown guy is involved in violent act before even the investigation starts
